I have a LEGIT copy of Vampire Darkstalkers Collection, a slim PS2 model no. SCPH-70012, and Swap Magic 3.8.
The disc boots up fine until I select one of the games within the collection.
After that, the screen remains blank and nothing happens.
Is there anything that I can do to get it to work without having to buy a Japanese PS2?

Could someone please tell me what possible solutions are there for my issue?
I have recently installed Free McBoot on one of my memory cards, but I still have been unable to figure out what I would need to do in order to get my copy of Vampire Darkstalkers Collection to work correctly.

To play imports, you need to backup your games using imgburn.

Make an ISO image, then patch the ISO image with ESR disc patcher 2.4 ,then burn the image with imgburn onto DVD-R at 4x speed.

I got the game patched and booted through ESR, but it still fails to load at the same part (After I chose a game within the game).
Perhaps I should explain 2 things:
1) The ISO is larger than 4GBs.
2) The game itself contains multiple games within it, as a compilation of games.

Well with using ESR, it doesn't matter if it is over 4gb.

Just Swap Magic is fussy that way, when ISO files are over 4.35GB

It may be that this particular game is not compatible, I am not sure as I don't own it.

You could try using the ESR_GUI_test2 made by ffgriever for some games that won't load with esr 9b
